Incubus have canceled the final two shows of their tour after an unidentified member of their touring party tested positive for Covid-19.
It is not publicly known whether the person was band or crew, if they were vaccinated or not, or whether their symptoms are mild or severe. The tour had a strict Covid-19 vaccination / negative test entry policy in place at every date regardless of local rules.

“To our fans in Ohio and Indiana, we regret to announce that there has been a confirmed COVID-19 case within the Incubus touring party. The safety of our fans, crew, venue staff and band is our top priority, so out of an abundance of caution we are postponing our shows in Huber Heights and Fort Wayne this weekend. We appreciate your love & support throughout these unprecedented times and we’ll keep you posted with more info soon. Much love <3″
